Cashman praised the Steinbrenner Family for taking on Robertson's salary for next season ($13 million). And adding a dynamic righty like the 27-year-old Kahnle, who is under team control for the next several years, helped as well. Now the Yankees can explore the market for Betances, if that's something they want to do. Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports speculated that the Bombers could use Betances as part of a potential package for Sonny Gray.www.nydailynews.com/sports/baseball/yank...

I would not go that far. But, these reporters want to see Cashman blow up the farm for a minor chance at going deep in the playoffs.

it would take more than Betances. Bean always over asks when it comes to Cashman. He'd probably also want Clint Frazier and Gleybar Torres. Use Adams to fill the void.

Beane would want younger good propects not making any money.Somebody like Sheffield. If Betances
was going to be traded it would be to a team in the hunt for the best return.

Betances has looked horrible lately. Great movement on his pitches, but no control. I think he's a head case and needs to be moved.

That's not going to happen. As reported with an interview with Cashman... Jonathan Soveta Jul 20, 2017 12:00 PM New York Yankees' Cashman:'Betances is not going anywhere'Yankees general manager Brian Cashman won't be trading Dellin one of his best relievers. After swinging a blockbuster, seven-player deal with the Chicago White Sox that landed the Yankees relievers David Robertson and Tommy Kahnle (plus Todd Frazier), New York's bullpen could be running out of room for Dellin Betances. But though their relief corps may be increasingly stacked, Cashman stressed Thursday that Betances will be donning pinstripes indefinitely. "No, I have no interest in moving Dellin Betances," the Yankees executive said on MLB Network Radio on Thursday. "He's a four-time All-Star, and he's a homegrown local guy. He's as much a part of the solution of where we going. "I've heard rumblings or speculation out there, I don't like to really address speculation but I can tell you Dellin Betances is not going anywhere." After trading Aroldis Chapman to the Chicago Cubs in 2016, the Yankees promoted Betances to a full-time closer role to mixed results. The right-hander converted 12 of 17 save opportunities in the final two months of the season and finished with a 3.08 ERA in 73 innings before the Bronx Bombers reacquired Chapman in the offseason. Betances' relationship with the franchise took a hit, however, during his arbitration hearing in February when team president Randy Levine ripped the reliever's demands and said he wasn't a true closer. Levine, though, later backtracked on his comments after the Yankees placed Chapman on the disabled list and Betances became the team's interim ninth-inning arm once again. In 35 appearances this season, Betances owns a 2.87 ERA, 1.34 WHIP, and has converted six of eight save

It's all about winning. Betances and Chapman have not been pitching well lately.

If that's so, why would any GM give the Yankees a usable starting pitcher for him?

Ca$hman is never going to show his hole card, would you expect him to say I shopping Betances ?? If he didn't get a trade it would always be in the back of Betances head, they didn't want me, they tried to move me, just think how big of head case he would be then, that's if everyone thinks he's a head case to start with...
